The Victorville Airport director gave me a tour of the airport last year, on the ramp were "4" 737-800 & a 757, all were going to other airlines. He did not let me take any photos, I wanted to shoot myself when the GE 747 test aircraft was on the ramp as well, with the oversized engine.....
Well its about the time now where ATA has stopped serving allot the cities it once did and is ramping down its fleet to less then 30 frames. This isn't a bad thing, its part of ATA's business plan. With their scaled back ops and more focus on charter and leisure to places like HNL with Southwest feeding them its really a home run for them. There's also nothing to say they won't expand to other destinations WN doesn't serve. I wouldn't be surprised to see San Juan come back, and other Mexican and Caribbean destinations being served from places like FLL, and HOU announced.
One other thing which will make Phil happy, ATA parks about four birds at LGA at night. When I flew to MKE last week they had two birds at the gate and two parked.
I saw those 738s when I visited Victorville last January. The position of the aircraft made it tough to take pics. I am surprised he wouldn't let you take any pictures. What was the reason? I saw that DC-10 water tanker but couldn't shoot it since it was wedged between two other buildings.Quote:

Look at the photos of Victorville on A.net or Jp.net very few are taken on the ground. What you can do is rent a Cessna for two hours and just do some touch and goes and you can shoot as much as you want from the plane.
yeaa tht is sad but hey how about this - it seems like they will be gettin the 763s tht i belive WN will be paying for and who knows maybe we will see them with 737-700s or hey maybe even 739s i guess only time will tell
Where did you get they are getting 767s???? That plan was scrapped about a year ago.Quote:
